Chrome's 4GB AI model isn't new, but you're not wrong for being confused - Ars Technica
All of Google’s products have been getting more AI features, including Chrome, which now offers split-screen Gemini chatbot support, the ability to automate web browsing, and more.

After spooking Trump into safety testing, Anthropic AI models get global release - Ars Technica

The company has spent the last two months putting Cybercabs on the streets in its hometown of Austin, Texas. With no major incidents to date, the company has said it plans to expand the Cybercabs operations to other cities, starting with Dallas later this month. (Tesla also operates robotaxi versions
